What You Can Expect

Ghosts and Gravestones - St Augustine

Embark on an adventure like no other as you journey through to the other side on the Ghosts & Gravestones Tour. Hop of the TROLLEY OF THE DOOMED and listen to haunted tales that surround one of the spookiest and most well known sites for supernatural occurrences, the city of St Augustine.

On your tour you will visit the Old Jail where you will learn about the many prisoners and practices that took place here. See where the Sheriff and his wife and family lived - adjacent to where the prisoners were housed.

Once inside the Old Jail, listen quietly for voices in the night; guests have reported hearing cries for help as they walked through the hallways. Be extra careful not to run into resident ghost, Charlie Powell, an inmate who served his time, yet was never set free.

Built in 1891, the Old Jail housed prisoners for over 60 years and many criminals met their maker here at the end of a hangman's noose. Listed on the Florida and National Haunted Places Register, the Old Jail has been the site of countless supernatural occurrences. Is St. Augustine really haunted? Only you can answer that question for yourself.

My husband and I had our first Ghosts and Gravestones tour in St. Augustine on Oct. 9, 2013. It was phenomenal and we will certainly have more. Our Ghost host was Marsha and the driver was Debbie. Fantastic!

First, we had a great time! Our tour guide was very informative, I thought we needed more time alone in these places and way too many people with the tour, however I did catch a few orbs on pictures, and in all we would plan on doing this again, and probably again!

We had a great time on the tour. The guide was knowledgeable and Charlie at the jail played his part well. For me the unexpected hem was going to the lighthouse and seeing it lit up at night. That was a nice touch! We, my teenage daughters included, certainly recommend this tour.
